Title: System and method for detecting the insertion or removal of a hearing instrument from the ear canal
Inventor: RYAN JAMES G
IPC: H04R1/10
Filed: 2004-03-31
Granted: 2010-07-06
Abstract: A hearing instrument system detects the insertion or removal of a hearing instrument into a space and includes first and second acoustic transducers, first and second level detection circuitry, and signal processing circuitry. The first acoustic transducer is configured to receive a first electrical signal and in response radiate acoustic energy, and the second acoustic transducer is configured to receive radiated acoustic energy and in response generate a second electrical signal. The first level detection circuitry is operable to receive the first electrical signal and generate a first intensity signal, and the second level detection circuitry is operable to receive the second electrical signal and generate a second intensity signal. The signal processing circuitry is operable to receive the first and second intensity signals and compare the first and second intensity signals and determine whether the hearing instrument is inserted into the space or removed from the space based on the comparison.

Title: Compact maxillary distractor
Inventor: SELLERS TIMOTHY M
IPC: A61B17/56
Filed: 2003-04-29
Granted: 2012-07-03
Abstract: The present invention provides an improved orthopedic system for the modification of the distance between the maxilla 21 and zygoma (22). In a preferred embodiment, the system includes first and second footplates (500, 700) attached to an orthopedic device (10). The second footplate (700) is attached to the zygoma (22), with the first footplate (500) being mechanically coupled to the maxilla (21). This mechanical coupling is achieved either through attachment directly to the maxilla (21) or by attachment to a construct which itself is attached to the patient's teeth. The orthopedic device (10), which may be a distractor, allows for modification of the distance between the maxilla (21) and zygoma (22). The entire system can advantageously be placed intra-orally within a patient. In a preferred embodiment, the device (10) does not increase in overall length (A) upon activation. In another preferred embodiment, the second footplate (700) is offset by a predetermined distance (C) from the end of the actuator (911), allowing the actuator (11) to be placed under and behind at least a portion of the zygoma (700). Methods for using this novel orthopedic system are also disclosed.

Title: Methodes pour traiter une maladie infectieuse d'origine bacterienne au moyen d'un anticorps de molecules signal derive d'une anti-lactone ou d'une lactone
Inventor: CHARLTON KEITH ALAN
IPC: C07K16/12
Filed: 2003-08-13
Granted: 2013-06-25
Abstract: L'invention concerne des méthodes pour réguler la virulence de bactéries infectieuses en modulant la concentration extra-cellulaire de molécules signalant la présence d'une cellule bactérienne. Des dérivés de molécules signalant la présence d'une cellule sont combinés à des protéines porteuses appropriées et utilisés pour isoler des récepteurs de haute sensibilité reconnaissant la/les molécule(s) signal endogène(s). En se liant aux molécules de signalisation, ces récepteurs diminuent les concentrations extra-cellulaires de molécules-signal et les maintiennent en-dessous du seuil qui se traduirait sinon par des états pathogènes opportunistes prenant une forme virulente, les organismes virulents devenant ainsi non-virulents. Lesdits récepteurs peuvent servir au traitement de personnes sensibles aux infections, au traitement de patients déjà atteints par une infection, à la surveillance et à la gestion de maladies et dans des applications associées, lorsque l'hôte d'une infection est un animal ou une plante.

Abstract: Waxes prepared from hydrogenated plant oils, such as castor and soybean, are formulated into aqueous ink and paper coating compositions. Ink compositions comprising these waxes and evaluated for their resistance to mar and abrasion achieved rub resistance and slip performance comparable to compositions utilizing conventional wax additives, which are generally derived from petroleum. The waxes in the inventive compositions have a low iodine value (ranging from approximately 2 to approximately 5), and a melting point between approximately 120 degrees to approximately 190 degrees F (Mettler Drop Point).  These naturally derived waxes are used as an alternative to petroleum and synthetically derived waxes in the manufacture of inks and coatings for paper and cellulosic products.
